You idea is possible but the number of pixels per unit will vary
depending on the physical size of the monitor and the size of a pixel.
A 17" monitor @ 1024x768 will have a different number of pixels per
unit than a 22" monitor @ 1024x768. And then there is the issue of
dot pitch...

What is the pixel size when you are routing the display
to two or more output devices simultaneously? E.g., when you
are viewing your presentation on your laptop's 15-inch screen
while everyone else is watching the 10-foot projected image?
